    Nothing is more riveting and captivating than literary works where the writer uses "self insertion".

    That sentence, the ways in which words are being played with, is the definition, in my view, even though many might disagree, of creative writing.

    @makorpoka Get a life. First off its a fictional book. Second I've read worse, The book wasn't even directed at Islam. Also if your a 10 year old, then the cursing really doesn't bother me. Have you ever seen south Park, they make fun of everybody and is incredibly disgusting at sometimes. But I still like it.
